jenni enterprise idea management software

Capture ideas from your workforce

 

Help your company innovate better

Jenni idea management virtual software is a web based tool that allows you to solicit, capture, evaluate and implement creative ideas from your work force.

Your workforce has all kinds of ideas that can help your business innovate better: new product ideas, operational ideas, marketing ideas and more. Jenni captures those ideas; builds those ideas through open, cross enterprise collaboration; facilitates evaluation; and even facilitates collaborative pre-implementation and implementation of ideas. And, Jenni's decentralised campaign based approach to idea management, ensures that innovation is focused on your business needs.

Total cross enterprise collaboration

Unlike other idea management solutions, Jenni facilitates total cross enterprise collaboration in idea building and implementing. In other words any employee anywhere in your organisation can look at ideas already submitted and build upon those ideas - even if they do not know the person who submitted the idea. Thus a general manager in Tokyo, a marketing manager in New York, an accountant in Melbourne and a research scientist in London can all collaborate on an idea submitted by a secretary in Rio de Janeiro - even if they have never met each other!

As a result, you can build incredible innovative synergies that produce far more creative ideas than could ever be developed by an individual or a team of people who already work together frequently.

Moreover, Jenni's genius directory of users allows your employees to build networks of innovative thinkers from across the workforce.

If creative ideas are your aim - then Jenni has got to be your idea management choice!

Decentralised campaign based idea management

Why centralised suggestion schemes do not work

A lot of idea management solutions are based on the old fashioned suggestion box scheme where people simply make suggestions to a central pool of ideas or an e-mail address. This kind of solution almost never works. Inevitably, the pool fills with ideas, the person managing the pool becomes overwhelmed, cannot manage the ideas and the system stagnates. Meanwhile, employees see that nothing is happening with their ideas and become demotivated. Result: they stop contributing ideas.

Jenni's decentralised approach

Jenni allows you to designate idea managers - such as heads of department - who create and manage their own, time-limited ideas campaigns. Thus your senior marketing manager can set up a time-limited campaign to solicit ideas on a new product launch. A product manager can set up a campaign to solicit ideas on new product features. And so on. As a result, the people who will implement the ideas are the ones who actually solicit, capture and evaluate them.

Benefits:

Innovation is highly focused on each division's needs - nevertheless, everyone in the company (or a limited group) can participate in an ideas campaign.
